Why labyrinths?

A labyrinth is a great tool to have at home or on an office desk, as walking the labyrinth is a right-brain activity enhancer and helps calm oneself and enhances problem-solving. A carved finger path makes it unnecessary to look, allowing one to focus on the walk. As opposed to a traditional maze, there are no wrong turns. Our labyrinths have a well-defined center, making it natural for a thumb to rest at the end of the walk. Experiment with using the non-dominant hand to find the way!
